Using the SEC’s EDGAR database, search for a large public company and download the most recent Form 10-K. This form contains all the information that must be reported annually to the SEC. Within this form, ensure that it includes footnotes, the management discussion and analysis (MD&A) sections, review each of the previously listed sections, and discuss any off-balance sheet financing, management concerns, management’s expectations for the future, and anything interesting or out of the ordinary. Feel free to supplement your search with current articles that discuss your chosen company and the industry in which it operates.
